Basic typesetting:
- Bold:
<bold>some text</bold>
becomes some text.- Italic:
<italic>some text</italic>
becomes some text.If you want to set a larger section of text (a line, several lines, etc) in bold or italic, the resulting EML is easier to read if you use <bold_lines> and <italic_lines>.
Example:
Instead of
<italic>Estimated diameter of the station: 500 metres.</italic>
you can write
<italic_lines>
Estimated diameter of the station: 500 metres.
</italic_lines>
Estimated diameter of the station: 500 metres.
</italic_lines>
Both of these will produce:
Estimated diameter of the station: 500 metres.
Note: If you did this instead:
<italic>
Estimated diameter of the station: 500 metres.
</italic>
Estimated diameter of the station: 500 metres.
</italic>
Then extra newlines would be added before and after the text, like this:
Estimated diameter of the station: 500 metres.
(Note: Depending on the browser and the rendered HTML element, the newline afterwards may not be shown.)
